I always believed in burning up the government's political capital, not being Mr Safe Guy, you know?
Sponsorship involves putting your own political capital at risk, so they are going to help that person to succeed. Women get promoted; they don't get sponsored. Women know they are on their own if they get that promotion.
I do know in the 1960s comics, Martian Manhunter took on the form of a black man - that could have been influenced by the political climate back then.
I don't know that a political climate - as long as it's still a free country - makes much difference in the film world.
Through my political work in D.C., and having done 'Milk' I got to know a lot of gay octogenarians. They are lovely and they like to tell their stories, and I like hearing them.
Now, I know among the politically correct, you're not supposed to use facts that are uncomfortable.
I know it's politically incorrect but I enjoy things like the kick boxing and cock fighting.

People who do not know how to laugh are always pompous and self-conceited.
I think my mission is to become the greatest human I can. I know that sounds pompous, but what else do we have?
I was a little one-trick pony. I do what I've always done. That's really where my best stuff comes from. I don't know how it happens. It just happens.
I won't usually make plans with people I don't know on Fridays because all I want to do is stick my hair in a ponytail and put on a big sweater, some tights and a pair of sneakers after a week working in the city.
And I know how many DJ pools have grown and I know how DJing has grown in the overall, but that was the technical side of it to me. DJs were rolling around, looking for stuff to buy and looking to see what was in the store when they get there.
As much as we were very proud of being a pop band, I know we never felt like we fit into that category.
I used to be the hippest of them all. I used to know everything about everything. I used to read about everything that was going on, and I knew everybody's name and anybody in pop culture. Anything that was written about me, I would read.
